What scale? I may have some at home in 1/48.

I'm on the look-out for some "Thumper" decals and any proof that the same was carried on the RH side?

Greg, I am looking for 1/48th! That would be awesome. Just let me know.

Steve, I will keep a lookout for you.

Well, sorry to get your hopes up but I can't find what I was sure I had. The problem is I built the kit about ten years ago and have moved since. I never throw anything away but I went through my whole decal stash tonight and couldn't find the rest of the sheet that I know I would have kept.

There was an Aeromaster set (48-259) and Cutting Edge/Meteor had a set (PYND48007) in 1/48 but they'll probably be pretty hard to find now. I looked around and didn't see any out there on eBay, oldmodelkits.com, etc. I did find this on Hyperscale - it's from last summer but may still be worth following up on.

Quote:
I have 4 sets of decals for a 1/48th B-29

Super Scale:
48-130
48-627
48-044

Pyn-Up:
PYND48007

Not sure if I'll ever get around to using all of them. I received them in a trade awhile back. Hit me up if you want to buy them or have something to trade. Maybe we can work something out. Email me at shntrader_63@hotmail.com

Cheers,
Steven
